It’s all in the Science!

Magic Colour Breakdown Materials you will need: • Water • Blotting paper (letter size or smaller) • Bread Baking tin (small) or a dish with an edge • 4-8 different coloured felt tip pens • Tape This is a colour changing experiment!

Swirled Milk Materials you will need: • Food Colouring • Liquid Dish Soap • Shallow Pan/Dish • Whole Milk (Room Temperature) Steps: 1. Pour some milk into the pan. Allow the milk to come to room temperature. 2. Add a few drops of different coloured food colouring into the pan of milk. 3. Add a few drops of liquid dish soap into the pan of milk. 4. Watch to see what happens. The fat in the milk is broken down by the liquid soap. This causes the food colouring to swirl and make some really neat designs.

Steps: 1. Line up your blotting paper and the lids of the marker pens which you will use this experiment. 2. Leaving around half a inch from the bottom of the blotting paper press each color marker pen down on the blotting paper gently so a dot has formed. 3. Tape your blotting paper to the top of your baking tin making sure there is a bit of space left at the bottom so you can pour some water in. Leave about half an inch from the bottom edge of the tin. 4. Slowly pour in some water until it just reaches the bottom of the blotting paper - making sure the colored markings (dots) do not dip into the water. 5. Watch to see what happens to all the colours as the water is being absorbed by the blotting paper. 6. Keep an eye on the circles you coloured to see what happens as the water travels up the blotting paper and reaches your markings. How many different colours can you see? You may think your marker is green, but when you see the break down you can actually see the different colors which make up the colour green. Which colour marker has the most colours in it? This is also called Chromatography. Chromatography is to seperate the components of a mixture or the separation of mixtures.
